My personal stop of contributing in CPython is that it is written in pure C !! I wrote code in both: pure C and C++, but I like writing code in C++, because it simplifies things without losing perfomance
There are plenty of Open Source projects that could use more capable C++ developers. :) I'm not a fan of C++. It has its use cases, e.g. in UI. Python core isn't the best fit. AFAIK most core devs are not fluent in C++. Despite it's name, C++ is really a different language than C. It has a different ABI and stdlib than C, too. In my personal opinion C++ won't give us any net benefits. I'd much rather go for Rust than C++ to gain memory safety. Christian
